[RS2000&MEXICO]

mexico still lagging behind and a van is worth just as much.....lol

[RS2000CUSTOM]

Report is dated April 1st - lol

[Mr Hoarder]

Just as well I got out of my Mexico all those years ago

[rwdrs]

does it matter

[Trickster]

I wonder where they got the figures from??

[Kel]

Think all RS/AVO Class one cars are under valued.

[RS2000CUSTOM]

does it matter

Certainly does here in UK because of

Thieving Scum Bags

When a MKII goes missing a prior agreed valuation allows the ex-owner to hopefully be paid out by their insurance company

This "pay-out" should be sufficient to replace a missing car

Unrealistic price guides allow insurance firms to under pay claims

My arguement is - try to buy a car for the values they are promoting !

Well the that's a surely a matter to be taken up with insurance companies not the SEOC, who's primary purpose in life is for people that the RSOC don't consider worthy of a full membership and they "mop up" people that don't want to join or are disaffected by other Escort owners clubs.

Anyway you can agree when taking out the policy how much you want to insure the car for and produce the contract with the seller for the amount paid, so it's not like one is helpless, whether or not the insurance pays out in full is of course another matter

1800 figures are not too far away tbh

my mk1 van is still there I see ....them prices seem about right but £2k for a class 3 ....although they are commanding big money....

mk2 sport/ ghia's at £4k & the mexico's only slighly valued higher and you can get a class 3 rs2k for nearly the same price as a class 1 mexico :winka:

No need to get so emotional about it, if the SEOC are just publishing the valuations of the insurance companies it's hardly their fault is it

The differential between the Mex and the RSII is obviously wrong, but I wouldn't pay 10K for a Mex despite some people's thought's on this matter, for one thing as we've seen recently there's a lot of cars that have surfaced recently that have more than just a whiff of having been "log booked" which is far easier to do to a Mex than an RSII so the risk of catching a cold is higher when contemplating a Mex. This being just one facet of the argument of the reasons why traditionally RSII's were always "a bit more" expensive, but indeed there never was this sort of differential.

Car is only worth what someone is willing to pay to own it, or indeed what someone would accept in order to sell??

I wish I could get my Mk1 valued, been trying for years now but nobody will do it for me??

[lee bishop]

the only one really awry is the mk2 mex and RS2, all the others seem more reasonable
